1440p micro lag Dual PC setup

Hi all,
I have recently got myself into dual pc setup using my old pc as the recording/streaming pc being an i5 7600k with a 1060 6gb GTX with 8gb DDR4 Ram.
My new pc is a z690-e i9 12900k with 64gb ddr5 using the RTX 3080 OC 10GB.

I have set the HD60 X up correctly and that is finally working fine. I also have 4 x AOC 1440p monitors with 170mhz refresh rate monitors. 1 is set up for the recording pc via display port.

What I am finding is that I am getting amazing quality while in game with no issues what do ever and graphics being fairly maxed out and on high. With most games
But when I record in 1440p and play it back I see micro stutters.
Now the main game I play is FIVEm (not sure what that is basically gta 5 online but more of a Roleplay type service) those that know it is extremely resource hungry so that is why I had to jump ship to dual pc as I am a YPP and wanting to increase the quality to maximize to the vp9 from YouTube.

Anyone know what could be the issues?
Would I be best changing from CQP 18 setting to CBR 50000?
File sizes do not bother me it’s about quality and visuals.

Hope this all makes sense. I can upload footage to show if it makes life easier for you? Please let me know.

A log file is needed. The 1060 may not be suitable for 2k recording.
Please restart OBS and perform a test stream/recording of at least 30 seconds doing as you normally do, including playing games, full camera or whatever you normally do.
Now look inside Help menu. Upload the current log file and paste the url to the log in here. Click on the Analize button to start troubleshooting common issues.

@rockbottom can you please write in one post and don't be disrespectful.

Anyway, waste time on getting a dual PC set-up that may or may not work as desired

or

Use the state of the art PC you just bought to do it all.

Can you stop spamming before I report you.

Secondly I’m not over complicating it. The gaming pc can’t do it all. Have you ever played FIVEm before? Have you ever seen how GPU hungry it has become. Answer is prob no. So I’d rather you just leave it alone as you clearly have no useful help.

Report me for what? I was trying to help you. You clearly have no Idea how powerful your set up is.

Not over complicating it, I beg to differ.

Good Luck when you get stuck look me up....

Please don't edit the link, just paste the URL as plain text and then the forum itself change it to an actual link.

You need to clean your sources, like removing the filters referencing to streamfx:
16:40:09.081: - filter: '3D Transform' (streamfx-filter-transform)

You have multiple game capture which may and will interfere between each other. Use one.

For recording it's better to use MKV container instead of mp4 format.
CQP instead of CBR. Then set the CQ level between 23 and 15 (lower better quality) according with what your computer allows you to use. You cna remux it at a later time if it's needed. If you don't record several separated audio channels for a later edition it's better to use simple output mode and select one of the quality presets your computer allows you to use without issues.

OBS (Open Broadcaster Software) is free and open source software for video recording and live streaming. Stream to Twitch, YouTube and many other providers or record your own videos with high quality H264 / AAC encoding.

There's no other issue you cna see on the log. Have you checked the capture card with another program like VLC or the viewer the capture card comes with.
The old CPU, old and only 8 GB of RAM, with a medium GPU may not handle properly a 2k recording.
As sugested, change to simple output mode and test. Or change to CQP, set the CQ level to 20 and test. If it goes well, change it to 18 and so on. I don't think you can go better than this.
Test it at 1080p too.

First of all thank you.
Weird I didn’t think I had any filters.
And what’s even more strange is that I have it set to CBR 55000 it’s smooth as CQP 18 was tested prior to this log and that’s where I got the stutters. But I will do what you suggested. :)
